CertifiedLabsWhat is a HIV DUO Test?
The HIV Duo test checks for HIV by looking for two things in your blood: the p24 antigen (a part of the HIV virus) and the antibodies your body makes to fight HIV. HIV is the virus that causes AIDS, a disease that weakens the immune system and can be very serious without treatment. In the early stages of HIV, the p24 antigen shows up in the blood a few days after infection, even before your body starts making antibodies, which usually take 2-8 weeks to develop. The HIV Duo test is great at finding HIV early because it can catch the p24 antigen before antibodies are present. This makes it less likely to miss an infection and helps people get treatment sooner.
HIV DUO Test Parameters
The HIV Duo test detects both the p24 antigen and antibodies to HIV-1 and HIV-2, enabling early diagnosis by identifying the virus before antibody production is fully established.
